Mom With Flesh-Eating Bacteria Sues Hospital After Limbs Amputated

A Central Florida woman who lost her arms and legs after contracting a flesh-eating bacteria after childbirth is suing Orlando Regional South Seminole Hospital, alleging medical malpractice.
Claudia Mejias, 23, originally went to Orlando Regional South Seminole Hospital for the delivery of her son, Matthew.
After she gave birth, doctors told Mejias that she had contracted a flesh-eating bacteria -- with amputation her only option.

"I remember it was Mother's Day and they told me, 'We got to amputate your legs and arms if you want to live,'" Mejias said.
